Wondering if I can run my 2012 GMC 3500HD DRW chassis cab with only single rear wheels for plowing (increased ground pressure with singles versus duals, and narrower footprint)? Will I damage anything? Spacers needed to run only one wheel per side on the studs?
Yes, I know- for weight distribution across 4 tires- but I'm not going to run it with a load of stone in the back (just with enough ballast to satisfy Western's recommendations).

I have always preferred a dually over single as the truck does not get pushed around by the snow nearly as quickly. Not to mention, if you get a flat tire with one of the duallies you just keep plowing.
